Joni Baloni is 48!

We had a birthday party for my mom on Sunday and she turned 48! (Her birthday was actually Saturday the 23rd). My sister & I invited all of the family and some friends over to my mom's house for dinner, cake & ice-cream. We all sat around eating, talking and having a great time! Then we pulled out some old pictures and took a walk down memory lane.

I have the cutest mom in the world. She is so friendly and happy to everyone she meets and I wish I could be more like that! I am grateful for her wonderful example.

Happy Birthday Mom! You are one of my favorite people and I love you so much!

Justin and Lindsay Wilkin said...: Happy Birthday Momma Joni! :) Your mom looks so pretty! My mom and I ran into her at Wal*Mart while I was in town. It was so good to see her. I miss all our mother/daughter dates. We have had so much fun over the years. I am so glad that we have both stayed close with our moms through the years. I guess distance wise I'm not so close, but we talk almost everyday and she is one of my best friends. You gotta love moms.; August 28, 2008 at 12:56:00 PM MDT
